Padilla Champions 'Outs' Against Aleman And 'Ins' : In Mexican Vote, July 7 . MEXICO CITY, July 3 (P Imposition," hunger of the poor, communism, religion and pos iblo influence of the United States in Mexican affairs are among the issues in Mexico's campaign to elect a new presi dent and a congress Sunday, July 7. The successor to President Manuel Avila Camacho will take office December 1 for a single six-year term. The two leading candidates, Miguel Aleman and Ezequicl Padilla, both arc former members of Avila Camacho's cabinet. Gen. J. Augustin Castro, former secretary of national de fense and Gen. Enrique Calde ron, a career, soldier, also are in the race. Campaign arguments have been heated, but somewhat one sided. It is Padilla, former sec retary of foreign affairs, who usually attacks, and Aleman, former secretary of the interior, who ignores the repeated blasts. Padilla is the opposition and Aleman represents the party cionario Institucional), and the great mass of people on the pub lic payroll are committed to his support 'Imposition' Charged "Imposition" is a widespread cry, which, however, was not invented by Padilla. It is the charge that the government and PRI put their men in office by their influence and by elections which have been denounced as fraudulent by angry crowds. In one case, at Leon, January 2, a crowd protesting against the "imposition'' of a PRI mayor was fired upon by troops which killed 30 and wounded 300. In Monterrey, second industrial city, PRI opponents charged elec tion results had been disregarded and officials "imposed" but the court refused to intervene. Roughly, both the leading can didates think Mexico needs food, goods, education and honesty. Mexico, formerly self-supporting, now imports one-seventh of what she eats. Even the tortilla is one-fifth corn from the United States, and half the wheat for Hungarian Pengo Up To Fantastic Level BUDAPEST, Hungary, July 2 (Delayed) ( A United States dollar was worth 100 quadrillion pengos today in Hungary, swept bv one of the most fantastic in flations of history. The economy of Hungary was approaching complete chaos. Ten quadrillion pengo notes were in general cir culation. In June, 1939, the pengo .was worth 29.12 cents. By last Oc tober its value had sunk to 1100 of a penny.

' Many Illiterates Nearly half of Mexico's 21, 000.000 population is illiterate. President Avila Camacho, like others before him, pressed a cam- i paign to teach simple reading and writing to all. Hundreds of j thousands have been taught in a year and several millions are getting a smattering of ABC's. ' Schools are being built and teachers are being trained. Padilla is the foremost advo-: cate of honesty in elections and in government Both he and Ale- i man bear heavily on the need to help the "little fellow." Many more than half of Mexico's 21, 000,000 earn so little that leaders admit frankly that they are hungry. Aleman's friends credit him with a sincere desire to bet-' ter their condition. Padilla, ex- pressing similar views, blames, the government, "corruption" i and selfish officials for their! plight. j Padilla's attacks on commu- i nism centers on Labor Leader j Vicente Lombardo Toledano, president of CTAL (Confedera cion de Trabajadores de America Latma), who denies he Is a communist. s the art with July Fourth By EARL WHITLOCK Have you ever taken time to think of the supreme bravery shown by those men who signed that Declaration of Indepen- dence of ours? , They were wk pret,v p r 0 m i J ) know. They i were not mere a d vent urers with nothing to lose and every thing to gain. They were not mere theorists e x perimentine of sovernment- running. They were prominent individuals in their respective colonies men ot standing and, many of them, of wealth. And in affixing their signa tures to the great document they gave definite, positive proof to Britain that they were guilty of treason against the king. They invited the hang man's noose. . They kidded each other about that, on the day of the signing, these founding fathers. Yet not once did any of them suggest any under-cover method of bringing about the end they sought. Their minds were not tuned to the subversive. They rebelled openly and proudly and daringly, challenging the whole power of the crown and its ministers. Brave men, indeed! Makes you wish we had more of their spirit and less of the tendency to compromise in the interests of expediency, doesn t it? "Memory Garden is for your comfort."
